Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are collapsing, locking in multi-meter sea level rise.
Coral reefs continue to die off.
Atlantic ocean current collapse means Europe could soon enjoy Edmonton winters.
Our boreal forest continues to burn every summer.
But at least we'll have a strong economy.

The new Canada-Alberta MOU is a positive step for our energy future.
Meaningful investments in Pathways, clear measures to reduce emissions, and a stronger industrial carbon price give Albertans the certainty we need to move forward. /1

Canada’s top political leaders are climate deniers. There’s no such thing as “decarbonized” oil and no environmentally conscious way to increase fossil fuel production.
Mark Carney and his government are sacrificing the climate and baking in worse natural disasters in the hope of short-term profit.

Another in a long list of studies showing that gender-affirming care saves lives. Yet anti-trans politicians like Danielle Smith and Scott Moe continue to scapegoat vulnerable populations for political gains. Reprehensible.
A new study reveals that gender-affirming care for transgender kids and young adults likely lowers rates of suicidality among those populations. The study found that suicide rates among all the youth who were studied dropped by over 67%.
New Study: Gender-Affirming Care Dramatically Lowers Suicide Risk for Trans Kids
Twenty-seven states in the US ban gender-affirming treatments for trans youth, including hormone therapy.

I got needles behind my scapulae today & anyway my hot take is that massage, physiotherapy & chiropractic care (the musculoskeletal kind not the antivax stuff) should all be publicly covered because for all that we’d recoup the cost in terms of productivity, the well-being alone would be worth it.
